I was talking about lowering that piece out not pulling it.


I would never rope that top, in that situation. I would go it much higher, then do it.

That was just a simple drop.
 
Those branches I was beating off were tiny pieces of deadwood. They are about half the diameter of a straw. Why cut those? They would probably just break anyway? Slow down? You have 8 hours in a day. I don't make the schedule. I do go slow what are talking about. If want to tell someone to slow down tell that one to Roachy. I learned now but when we used to work together it was like subconsious race between us in a tree togethere sometimes. I just take my time and pace it.
 
Mike we are required to produce ,do you mean to tell me when you grab for your polesaw you dont snap dead twigs out! I guess I am to blame partly because I enjoy running a tree some guys think I am raceing but thats not the case .I can assure you that we uphold the highest stanards of quality and arboriculture at our co.remember those are only short video clips dont judge Johns proffesionalism based on that ,thats my job.
 
Butch why not put a rope in a top like that? Hell thats more fun Disneyland.
 
Why put a rope on it?

1) I yell for a pull-line to my hearing-impaired groundies.

2) I yell again, and try to use hand signals.

3) They still don't understand what I want.

4) They shut down the chipper, so they can hear me.

5) They FINALLY understand what I want.

6) I smoke a whole cigarette waiting for them to fetch the rope.

7) They tie the rope on, each time in a crazy, different way.

8) Because they just threw the improperly hanked rope on the ground, three times as I pull the rope up, they spend 5 minutes each time untangling it.

9) 1/3 of the time, as I get the line pulled up to 10 feet below me, their knutty knot comes untied.

10) Repeat steps 7 and 8.

And I've been to DisneyLand, and DisneyWorld. I would rather go there!:D
